1. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1.1. IMPORTANT! Please read before starting
This air conditioning system meets strict safety and operating standards.
As the installer or service person, it is an important part of your job to install or service the
system so it operates safely and ef
fi
ciently.
For safe installation and trouble-free operation, you must:
• Carefully read this instruction booklet before beginning.
• Follow each installation or repair step exactly as shown.
• Observe all local, state, and national electrical codes.
• Pay close attention to all danger and caution notices given in this manual.
WARNING:
This symbol refers to a hazard or unsafe practice which can result in
severe personal injury or death.
CAUTION:
This symbol refers to a hazard or unsafe practice which can result in
personal injury and the potential for product or property damage.

If Necessary, Get Help
These instructions are all you need for most installation sites and maintenance conditions.
If you require help for a special problem, contact our sales/service outlet or your certi
fi
ed
dealer for additional instructions.
In Case of Improper Installation
The manufacturer shall in no way be responsible for improper installation or maintenance
service, including failure to follow the instructions in this document.
1.2. SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS
When Wiring
ELECTRICAL SHOCK CAN CAUSE SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH. ONLY A
QUALIFIED, EXPERIENCED ELECTRICIAN SHOULD ATTEMPT TO WIRE THIS SYS-
TEM.
• Do not supply power to the unit until all wiring and tubing are completed or reconnected
and checked.
• Highly dangerous electrical voltages are used in this system. Carefully refer to the wir-
ing diagram and these instructions when wiring. Improper connections and inadequate
grounding can cause accidental injury or death.
• Ground the unit following local electrical codes.
• Connect all wiring tightly. Loose wiring may cause overheating at connection points and
a possible
fi
re hazard.
When Transporting
Be careful when picking up and moving the indoor and outdoor units. Get a partner to
help, and bend your knees when lifting to reduce strain on your back. Sharp edges or thin
aluminum
fi
ns on the air conditioner can cut your
fi
ngers.
When Installing...
...In a Ceiling or Wall
Make sure the ceiling/wall is strong enough to hold the unit’s weight. It may be necessary
to construct a strong wood or metal frame to provide added support
.
...In a Room
Properly insulate any tubing run inside a room to prevent “sweating” that can cause drip-
ping and water damage to walls and
fl
oors.
...In an Area with High Winds
Securely anchor the outdoor unit down with bolts and a metal frame.
Provide a suitable air baf
fl
e.
...In a Snowy Area (for Heat Pump-type Systems)
Install the outdoor unit on a raised platform that is higher than drifting snow.
When Connecting Refrigerant Tubing
• Keep all tubing runs as short as possible.
• Use
the
fl
are method for connecting tubing.
• Apply refrigerant lubricant to the matching surfaces of the
fl
are and union tubes before
connecting them, then tighten the nut with a torque wrench for a leak-free connection.
• Check carefully for leaks before opening the refrigerant valves.
When Servicing
• Turn the power OFF at the main circuit breaker panel before opening the unit to check
or repair electrical parts and wiring.
• Keep
your
fi
ngers and clothing away from any moving parts.
• Clean up the site after you
fi
nish, remembering to check that no metal scraps or bits of
wiring have been left inside the unit being serviced.
• After installation, explain correct operation to the customer, using the operating manual.
WARNING
Never touch electrical components immediately after the power supply has been turned
off. Electric shock may occur. After turning off the power, always wait 5 minutes before
touching electrical components.
If refrigerant leaks while work is being carried out, ventilate the area. If the refrigerant
comes in contact with a
fl
ame, it produces a toxic gas.
CAUTION
Do not attempt to install the air conditioner or a part of the air conditioner by yourself.
This unit must be installed by quali
fi
ed personnel with a capacity certi
fi
cate for handling
refrigerant
fl
uids. Refer to regulation and laws in use on installation place.
This unit is part of a set constituting an air conditioner. It must not be installed alone or
with non-authorized by the manufacturer.
Always use a separate power supply line protected by a circuit breaker operating on all
wires with a distance between contact of 3 mm (1/8 in.) for this unit.
The unit must be correctly earthed (grounded) and the supply line must be equipped
with a differential breaker in order to protect the persons.
The units are not explosion proof and therefore should not be installed in explosive
atmosphere.
When moving, consult authorized service personnel for disconnection and installation
of the unit.
Do not place any other electrical products or household belongings under indoor unit
or outdoor unit.
Dripping condensation from the unit might get them wet, and may cause damage or
malfunction of your property.
2. ABOUT THE UNIT
2.1. Precautions for using R410A refrigerant
The basic installation work procedures are the same as conventional refrigerant (R22)
models.
However, pay careful attention to the following points:
Since the working pressure is 1.6 times higher than that of conventional refrigerant
(R22) models, some of the piping and installation and service tools are special. (See
the table below.)
Especially, when replacing a conventional refrigerant (R22) model with a new refrigerant
R410A model, always replace the conventional piping and
fl
are nuts with the R410A piping
and
fl
are nuts.
Models that use refrigerant R410A have a different charging port thread diameter to pre-
vent erroneous charging with conventional refrigerant (R22) and for safety. Therefore,
check beforehand. [The charging port thread diameter for R410A is 1/2 inch.]
Be more careful that foreign matter (oil, water, etc.) does not enter the piping than with
refrigerant (R22) models. Also, when storing the piping ,securely seal the opening by
pinching, taping, etc.
When charging the refrigerant, take into account the slight change in the composition of
the gas and liquid phases. And always charge from the liquid phase where refrigerant
composition is stable.
